Overlooking the Mediterranean from the heights of the Montsant, the Priorat is a space whose rugged topography surprises the visitor. Eight centuries ago on these slatey lands, the Carthusian monks of Scala Dei marked out the terrain that is today?s modern, booming Priorat Qualified Designation of Origin.
Historically, the dry white wines of Priorat have been heavily oxidized, often with high alcohol levels and a monolithic structure. Here Jordi relies on extremely low yields and optimal harvesting times to keep good acidity in the wines before allowing them to ferment with natural yeasts in stainless steel tanks. The key to the white is allowing the Garnacha Blanca to rest on its fine lees during the cold winter, a technique that helps to impart a lovely creaminess to the wine.
